A BEAUTIFUL SOULFUL WOMAN - the Miracle of BEING

This beautiful, soulful woman needs our collective support now more than ever, if you able to show Christy some kindness it would be so appreciated - www.backabuddy.co.za/campaign...
Part of the amazing thing about being a human being is that we are able to have a wide range of emotions.
Think of your feelings as waves on the ocean. They come and go, rise and fall. No feeling lasts forever, and anger and sadness are necessary, helpful parts of the human experience. But when we try to suppress these emotions, we are unable to truly thrive as people. Part of having a full life is feeling all of your emotions. It is beaming with joy, and feeling like your heart is full of gratitude during some moments. It is also experiencing heartbreak and disappointment and truly letting yourself sit with these feelings.
All of our emotions contain gifts and help us to truly grow as people. You deserve to let yourself experience all of your emotions, and to treat yourself with kindness and care.
Filmed at Cape Town, South Africa.
Featuring Christy Bragg.

    As 27 years old, who is living with cancer since 7 years, I can only tell that it's only truth. Being a live, being able to walk, dance, cry, laugh, make love etc. it is huge mercy in life! Love yourself deeply with your all sorrows and insecurities and there will be always others, who will love you too. ❤️

    You really do speak for so many of us Christy ..those of us who lack the courage and wisdom you have shared. I also was lost after a marriage of 30yrs. No children or family and disabled. I spent 2yrs totally alone finding my way back to that brave girl I was as a child. Now...I am so proud of me and ladies like me and you. Our soul rise to a better place. You are beautiful in everyway thank you.

    Its hard not to cry watching the poignancy of her testimony and strength Christy shows to us. I hope and pray for her to carry on and overcome her challenges. Love the wonderful smile of her son who is clearly comforting to her.

    My partner is listening in and just said, "How could anyone leave this beautiful woman?" You truly are a beautiful soul. You have brought tears to our eyes with your beautiful message of hope! Thank you!

    This really hit home for me as my mum has had Parkinson's disease for the last 15 years. There's been many struggles and she has often said why me? She was a nurse and carer her whole life and now she excepts that she is looked after by wonderful carers and myself. Mum has never given up though and we work our way through each problem and carry on. She's hardly able to walk now but she will still be coming to us for Christmas, whatever her physical look may be she is still my mum and part of this family. Blessings to Christy in this film and may she carry on over coming her challenges.

    "My daughter says "If you want a flower, you'll find a flower." So the learning of where the flowers are in my life -- that's been my journey." This is such a beautiful sentiment. Thank you.

    I think this is beautiful: "when crying gets easier, laughing gets easier... once you cry, you leave a little bit of space for the joy to come in."

    Dear Christy, your story really resonated with me. I too divorced after 20 years of marriage. It was the darkest, most frightening time of my life. I remember so well the feeling that I was on a raft in the middle of the ocean. As I battled to get my life back on course, I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. It was such a painful struggle, I could barely walk.
